FRIDAY MOBNIS6, SOV lTth. The Evils of Misrepresentation. We regftet to discover in the tone of certain influential journals a disposition to misrepresent and do great injustice to the freedmen of the South. For the sake of political capital assertions are made in regard to the state of affairs here, for whioh there is not the slightest founda tion. It is not deemed of the slightest consideration that this disregard for the the truth may prove of injury to the negro. He has been talked about so much that almost every one has come to look upon him as common property, and it is hardly possible to say anything about him that will not find approval some where. Circumstances over which he could have no control have placed im between the cross-fire of parties for years, and the result has been that lie has sui- fered as well through the zeal of those who made pretensions of being his friends as the embittered hostility of his enemies. , While he was under the protecting care of his master, whose interest in him and oftentimes his love for him made him shield him from abuse, it did not make so much difference what was said or done. Now that he is free, and thrown thus sud denly on his own resources, the case is very different, and it should be remem bered that whatever obstacle is placed in his way has a direct tendency to dispirit Lini in his efforts to accomplish some thing for himself. There are those who urge that this class of people, whom our Chief Magistrate quite recently addressed as fellow-citi zens, are on the eve of insurrection, and are liable, at any moment, to break out into excesses too brutal and horrible to contemplate. This is used as an argu ment in favor of a speedy restoration of Georgia and other States to all their rights, that they may find within them selves the means of repressing such threatening evils. We feel, perhaps, as deep an interest in this matter of restoration as any one. We would be glad if our State could pass under the control of our properly elected officials, and be relieved from this quasi territorial government under which we are living this very day. It would quick en the, life of our people—shake off that feeling of lethargy and despair which clouds the prospects of so many, and infuse new energy into all branches of industry. But we would not resort to the mean subterfuge of lying, or dispar age the efforts of these unfortunate blacks, in order to give efficacy to our reasons for entertaining such laudable desires. There are many instances in which the Freedmen—worthless portion of them— have behaved badly, and have overlooked the fact that they are amenable to the laws. We do not hold them blameless by any means, but that as a class they are lawless or inclined to be so, we stout ly deny. The statements, but one ex ample of which we have given, which these journals would palm off on the people as true, are utterly false, manu factured out of whole cloth to suit the purposes for which they were intruded. Wq have taken the trouble to say this much on a subject we know to be very distasteful to our citizens in general, be cause, in our opinion, there appeared gopd reason why such things should be refuted, and nothing was to be gained by covering up the truth. The practical workings of the Freedmen’s Bureau, viewed from our stand-point, with but a few exceptional cases, the result of in- competency or unfitness of officials, have been satisfactory everywhere, and the Bureau is meeting with encouragement and support throughout the North. We deem it indispensable to secure that har mony of action and mutual confidence between our planters and the Freedmen without which the freedom of the latter would indeed prove a curse to all, and we would not have it, nor any other as sociation that looks to the improvement of the negroes for their good and oars, lose one particle of their force through snob gross fabrications as that to which we have alluded. the legitimate drama TO-NIGHT, at the Theatre, where an intellectual entertainment, worthy of the generous support of a refined communi ty, will be given. — ' Personal.

Miss Lester has given readings with great success in Natchez, Vicksburg, Miss., Memphis, Tenn., Charleston, S.

Miss Lester is a talent ed lady and a native of Natchez, Miss With a fine, commanding figure, pretty face and melodious voice, we have no doubt her dramatic recitations would en trance an intellectual audience, who de light to while away an hour with the po ets, and we trust the report is true of such “a feast of reason and flow of soul” beiug vouchsafed to our citizens.

Accident on the Central Railroad On Thursday last an accident occurred on the Central line, with very curious results For some time past, our readers arc fully aware, and many of them, too, will not forget it, the repairing of this line has been in pro gross aDd reached as far as station 4 1-2. One of tbe engines, used for carrying wagons along the line was rather defective in its boiler, which it thought fit to blow up on Thursday last. The engine driver and fireman were both at their posts at the time of the explosion, and strange to say, neither was hurt, although both were flung a distance of some 20 yards from the engine. The shirt of the driver was actu ally blow n to atoms off his back, although he himself escaped with ft whole skin, while the fireman’s cap was taken *way in the same manner and without injuring his wool. TL* upper portion of tbe boiler, as ftlso the dome, weighing about six hundred pounds each, wore seen dying up in the air over the forest, and have not been found yet. Some of those who witnessed the affair, say that they must have fallen into the mud of some of tbe creeks ; bat the general impressioo, however, is that they have not come down yet. The report was heard a distance of from 15 to 20 miles. All the under machinery .of the engine is in perfect order, as is clearly proved by its having dashed aloug the liue, after the explosion, for a dis tanco of five miles, almost with the rapidity of a cannon hall, to the great astonishment of a who had an opportunity, doubtless for the first time, of witnessing a runaway engine.

The necessary preliminaries having been ar ranged, and the appjictment of the usual stand ing committees ordered, the great subject before the Council, viz : the relations of the several di oceses comprising it to each other, and to the Church iu the United States, was reteriedtoa joint committee, consisting ot Bishop Elliott, on the part of the House of Bishops, and the Rev. Ur. Aodrews, the Rev. Messes. Trapier and Pick ell, and Messrs. Phelan and Moore, on the part of the House ol Deputies. This committee made a report on Thursday morning, which, alter discussion and ameudmeut iu each house, was passed in tbq following form, thus provioiug a iule by which the several dio ceses beloogiDg to the Couucii will govern them selves iu deiermiumg their future eoclesiastical relations: Preamble and Resolutions of the Joint Commit tee on Ecclesiastical Relations, as finally adopted. Whereas, the several Dioceses, which we as Bishops and Diputies represent at this Council, were impelled by political events to separate, in a legislative capacity, fiorn the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States, and did decide,upon grounds sanctioned by Holy Scrip ture and primitive an iqnity, to unite together und adopt for their better government and more convenient action a Constiiuiion and Code of Canons, and did meet, in pursuance of that Constitution, in General Council, in Novem- bet, 1662; and Whereas, this Church so organized, although arising out of political events, was from that time u duly organized branch of the one Catho lic and Apostolic Church, and may of right so continue to be, or may, through the action of its several Diocesan Councils, from any other synodical association; and Whereas, in the opinion of several of the dioceses whi-h co-opeiatcd in the formation of this independent branch of theCatholie Church, thetxigeiicy which-caused ils arrangement no longer exists; and Whereas, the spirit of charity which prevail ed in the proceedings of the General Conveu- lion of the Protestiut Episcopal Church in the United Slates, at its late session in Philadel phia, has warmly commended itself to the hearts of this Council; therefore Resolved, 1. That in thejudgment of this Coun cil, it is perfectly consisieiit with the good faith which she owes to the Bishops aud Dioceses with which she has been in uuion since 1S62, for any Diocese to decide for herselt whether she shall any longer continue in union with th.s Council. 11 That.il be recommended that wherever the word Confederate occurs in the stsudards ol this Church, tbe woid United be substituted therefor IU. That inasmuch as the change recommend ed in the preceding resolutions (beiug a change in tb6 Ptayer Book) cannot be legally completed until the next meeting of this Council, that, un der the ciicums’ances, it should, in the mean time, have the force ot law in aoy Diocese, when ever approved by its Bishop or Diocesan Coun cil. IV. That each Diocese now in connection wi'h this Couucii shall be governed by the Constitu tion and Canons tbereol until such lime as it shall have declaied its withdrawal therefrom, as hereinafter provided for. V. That whenever any Diocese shall determine to withdraw front this Ecclesiastical Confedera tion, such withdrawal shall be eons'deied as duly accomplished when an official uo'ice, signed by the Bishop and Secretary of such Diocese, shall have been given to ibe Bishops of the Dioceses temaiumg in connection wtthihis Council. Resolved, That while we advise the change of tbe word Confederate to thit of United where it occurs iD the Prayer Book, we re commend that a joint committee bo appointed by this Council to enter its solemn protest against those Military Orders by which Churches hove been closed and Clergymen ordered to he su-pended from their functions, because they could not use certain Prayers under the dictation of the Military authority. The Joint Committee, provided for in the foregoing resolution, made the following Report : The Committee, to whom was referred the following joint resolution of tbe General Coun cil, viz : Resolved, That, while we advise the change of the word “Confederate” to that of “United’ where it occurs in the Prayer Book, we recoin mend that a joint, committee be appointed by this Council, to enter its solemn protest against those Military Order* by which Churches have been closed and Clergymen or dered to be suspended from their functions, because they could not use certain pjsyers under the dictation of tbe Military authority, do respectfully report, that— Whereas, the Bishop of Alabama was elect ed and consecrated under the Constitution and Canons of the Protestant Episoopal Church, in the then Confederate States, and never has been, nor is now, a Bishop of tho Church in the United States, nor can be so in the judg ment of that Church, as recently expressed in his case, onlcss aDd until he shall have made the required “fSrorhise of conformity” to the Constitution RDd Cations thereof; and Whereas, For'this reason beheld that be was under no ecclesiastical obligation to use the Prayer appointed in the Prayer Book of said Church for ‘ the President of the United States, and all in civil authority;” and Whereas, The independence of the Cbnrch in matters'purely spiritual, is held to be of Di vine authority, and has been tbe doctrine of the Church since the foundation of Christiani ty, and is at this day universally conceded by the powers of this world, whenever the Church has been true to itself— Therefore. We the, members of (his Council, do in our own behalt and in behalf of the Chris tian Church throughout the world, solemnly pro test against tbe order issued September 20, 1865, Irom the Headquarters of tbe Department of Alabama, that the Bishop and Clergy of that Diocese 1 be'auspended from their lunc-ions, aud forbidden to preach or perform Divine service, and that their places ot worship be closed’ 1 —-and against all and every secular interference with ecclesiastical affairs, as a violation ot liberty of conscience, as guarantied by tbe Constitution of tbe United States.

V Thb Next Cotton Crop.—It is all impor tant to tbe South, as well as to tbe balance ot the world, that the next cotton crop should be a largo one. If the laborers we have in onr j powerful roles, midst will not work, meant should at once be taken to obtain help which will. Every one who has my interest in the welfaro of the South should awake to the importance of hav ing onr now almost uncultivated fields once more covered with the productions of the soil. The Louisville Journal speaks thus iu regard to the next cotton crop: “The present crop in the South will amount to little; but next year a great effort ought to be made to raise a large crop. Prices for a year or twe to come, at least, are likely to rule high, probably not much leas than forty cents. Now, if four million bales could be raised dur ing I860, it would amount at that price to the enormous sum of six hundred and forty mil lion dollars, or about one -fourth of our na tional debt. This simple statement is suffi cient to show of what importance a great crop of cotton next year will be both to the indivi dual wealth of the country and to fhe govern ment in the payment of the national debt. Such a crop would send new life aud activity j through every channel of business from the | Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. The revenues of the government would be of course, corres- i pondingly increased and the burden* lifted from the shoulders of the people.” Tar. Future Pmic* of Cotton —The Now York Tribune thinks tbe price of cotton will advance, instead ot being lower—lor a time, at least. It reasons thus in regard to the matter : Theie was far more cotton iu the South when the war stopped than bus hitherto been e-linia- ted. If, as we stated there are now 200,000 bales at thia port and New Orleans only, with 45,00'J at Mobile, the quantity in the market must be fully 300,000 bale* ; and if it be, as it appears, still coming in at the rate of 3 >,00J per week, there can be bard'y less than one million bales to-day in tbe country, worth where it lies, noties* than $ 50,000, On id gold und of still greater value at Liverpool We shall probably export enough to give usallrasl £15,0.0 tu draw ugaiost— which is no small item As yet, the Southern railroads are mainly imr paired—the Southern rivers steamhoatle-s or too low to he navigated, so that much of this cotton may he kept back until November ; hut it is “all as good as rye,” and be likely to rule higher in price than lower in Liverpool six months hence. For, while the old stock proves larger thqn was estimated, the growing crop cannot ex ceed one million of bales, atM is more likely to. fall below that mark. Texas may have a half erfip, but the disorganization of Southern labor is so complete, while tbe collapso of the rebellion occurred so late in the season, that the one planted is very small. The Souttf will make corn and pork enough for her own sub sistence ; but her export staples will this year be grown so meagrely that they cannot fail to advance in price. Cotton may be lower next month or next fall than it is to-day, but we are confident it will rule higher iu Liverpool next March than it does to-day. MR. AND MRS.

SATURDAY SUPPLEMENT. Progress lit Skirt Manufacture. It affords us pleasure to note, from time to time, fresh developments and triumphs of skill iiraiiy branch of manufacture, particularly so if the comfort and well-being of a whole com munity or country U thereby enhanced. Per haps no greater improvement has recently been made in any article of ladies' apparel than in crinoline, and the latest success is due to Messrs. W. S. Thomson, Langdon & Co,, J'Jl Broadway, of our city, whose reputation is world-wide through their five European es tablishments. The M.ssrs. Thomson were about the first who entered largely into the manufacture of ladies’ hoop skirts, their good* being the finest, and made under’patents taken out by themselves, one of which, the celebra ted eyelet patent fastening, has become of great value not onlr to themselves, but to all ladies who have bad tbe benefit of this peculiar fas tening- This unique and feture fastener, combined with their patent wedge slide, makes •be strongest skirt yet produced; but the im provement to which we call particular notice is the great change for the better in the springs —and their success is established. The French elastic spring, introduced within a few months, has proved the most timely invention, and does away for ever with the stiff, awk ward iron-dads, which were a source of dis comfort and chagrin to tbe wearer, and brought forth such a tirade from the press, not to speak of the grumbling heard in all public conveyances against the in'ruders.— The “French elastic” has already established a -new order of thiBgs, securing comfort to the ladies from the great elasticity of the garment, which requires no more room than the ordi nary starched skirt formerly did. As to style and shape, this firm may be considered as leaders of fashion, the senior member residing in Paris, and having a large factory there, and owning the exdusive patent for skeleton skirts for all France and Belgium, besides hav ing the largest skirt manufactory in London The very faet of the oldest and most extensive manufacturer haring introduced the latest nov elty, will be a word iq season to all the trade who .have not already adopted the new springs.— tlnited States Economist, and Dry Hoods Reporter, Atuj. 26, 1865. We have seen a specimen ot the hoop skir. from the above establishment, and in our opin. ion, they are all |hat can be desired by tbe ladies. They are neat, light and durable, and being ‘ fastened with the patent wedge slide, make them complete and serviceable. Tbe well known dry goods house of DeWitt & Morgan have them on sale, and invite the at tention of the indies to them. 9 Eleventh night ol the favorite artistes : prEVv York. Mr. & Mrs. W. H.
